History

Tiimely was founded in 2015 by Anthony Baum, and secured seed funding in 2016 from Bendigo & Adelaide Bank, who also provide the funds for Tiimely’s home loans.[1][6] In March 2017, the company closed its Series A funding round, securing A$4.1 million in further funds from Bendigo & Adelaide Bank.[1]

The company officially launched its home loan offering in July 2017.[7] In December 2017, Tiimely announced an expansion of services to include Tasmania, officially expanding their serviceable area to cover all states of Australia.[8]

Tiimely closed a Series B funding round in July 2018, raising A$11.5 million.[9] The raise was led by La Trobe Financial and Genworth Financial’s Australian arm, Genworth Mortgage Insurance Australia.[9]

In November 2018, Tiimely announced it would offer their technology to Bendigo & Adelaide Bank as part of their first enterprise partnership.[10] In March 2019, Bendigo Bank launched Bendigo Express, a digital home loan white-labelled under the Bendigo Bank brand.[10]

On February 5 2020, Tiimely launched its first software offering, XAI Validate, which uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to automate the validation of customer data.[5][11] XAI Validate was rebranded to Xapii in conjunction with the November 2023 rebrand.

Yasmin Allen was appointed chairman of the board in November 2021.[12]

Tiimely closed a Series D funding round in December 2022, raising A$54 million. The raise was led by Regal Funds Management and is made up of A$30 million raised in February, with a further A$24 million raised from existing investors Bendigo & Adelaide Bank and IAG Firemark Ventures .[13]
